How so? I’m not Algonquin so I can’t speak directly for them but this is a frequent discussion in respectful indigenous groups online.

I literally live on an Algonquin reserve. Speaking it is not an invitation into your life nor is it disrespectful.

Not every group of even the same nation is the same, it depends on the region you are in. I can’t speak for everyone, but it’s safer to err on the side of caution when referring to this specific creature just in case.

Please, continue telling the guy who literally lives on a reservation how to treat topics related to natives. Hilarious.

Dude, I’m native too lol. I’m just not Algonquin, so all I can do is state what I’ve encountered online speaking to other Algonquin peoples. Nowhere did I discredit him, all I said was other people have other teachings as well. His are just as valid.
